This paper is mainly focused on reducing the certain amount of artificial fiber with green fiber or natural fiber. The replacement of particular amount of synthetic fiber, reduce the cost and made the product economical. By doing so the composite become user friendly. In this experiment, using handlay-process, a hybrid polymer matrix is fabricated by replacing some percentage of carbon with banana fiber. The prepared specimen is subjected to mechanical testing. The fabricated work piece resulted in better mechanical properties such as improved tensile strength, hardness, flexural strength and impact strength. This hybrid composite has applications in automobile parts like break lining, leaf springs, etc.
